Re: using fq means no results

2019-11-12 Thread Erik Hatcher
To add bq in there makes it query parser specific.  But I’m being pedantic 
since most folks are using edismax where that applies (along with a bunch of 
other params that would also deserve mention, like boost and bf).  q and fq, 
agreed for the explanation.  bq mentioned only if specifics and siblings 
described too :)

I explain it this way:

* fq: filtering
* q: filtering and scoring
* bq: scoring

That's right.   Only `q` (and it's query parser associated params) are used for 
scoring.   fq's narrow the result set, but don't influence score.

fq is a filter query, and thus narrows the result set provided by the q down to 
what also matches all specified fq's.

You gave it a query, "cat_ref_no", which literally looks for that string in 
your default field.   Looking at your q parameter, cat_ref_no looks like a 
field name, and your fq should probably also have a value for that field (say 
fq=cat_ref_no=owl-2924-8)

Use debug=true to see how your q and fq's are parsed, and that should 
shed some light on the issue.
